▶ Your Answer : The professor in the lecture discredits the passage’s claim that sucralose is harmful to humans and makes an alternative claim that contradicts the passage. One of the first point made in the lecture is that spike in insulin production does not mean that diabetes will develop. While sucralose does cause an insulin spike, other common foods such as rice and potatoes also cause a spike in insulin. This means that sucralose is not the direct cause of diabetes. Instead, the professor points to the fact that people who drink diet sodas that contain sucralose are more likely to be obese, which is a known cause of diabetes. This contradicts the claim made in the passage that sucralose increases the risk of diabetes. Another argument the professor makes in her lecture is that sucralose does not create harmful chemicals when used for cooking. The laboratory experiments that were mentioned in the passage that found that dangerous chemicals that were produced made sucrose react with substances not commonly found in everyday cooking. Also, the researchers heated the sucrose to a higher temperature than what is usually normal for cooking. This invalidates the studies on sucralose creating dangerous chemicals, refuting the claim made by the reading. Finally, the professor points out that there are no scientific evidence that sucralose causes intense allergic reactions. The evidence for such a claim comes from the fact that anecdotal evidence is all there is to support the position that sucralose causes intense allergic reactions and anecdotal evidence are not always reliable because people can be easily influenced by popular opinions and believe that they experienced an extreme allergic reaction to sucralose even though they did not. This counters the passage’s claim that sucralose can cause intense allergic reactions when consumed.

1. intro 분량을 3문장 이상으로 늘려주세요.
2. reading and listening의 비율이 너무 listening쪽으로만 치우쳐져 있습니다.
비율은 5:5, 적어도 6:4 정도는 되어야 합니다.
이는 리딩에 대한 디테일 부족으로 이어지며, 분량 부족, 추가 설명 실패 등으로 이어질 수 있으니
리딩에서도 evidence를 많이 찾아서 써주시면 좋을 것 같습니다.
3. 동사가 두 번씩 쓰이는 경우가 잦습니다.
한 문장 안에 (연결어 없이) 동사는 하나여야 합니다.
that 절 위치도 잘 확인해주세요.
수고하셨습니다. *^^*
